Yemen succeeded in withstanding US, Israel with full sincerity: IRGC commander
A high-ranking commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) says Yemen provided “unparalleled” support for the people of Palestine in the face of the US and Israeli acts of aggression.
In an interview with Yemen's al-Masirah television channel on Friday, Brigadier General Amir Ali Hajizadeh, the commander of the IRGC’s Aerospace Division, said the Yemeni people have given everything they have to support the Gaza Strip.
“The Yemenis have no equal in supporting Gaz. We salute them, both leaders and people,” he added.
"The Yemenis have succeeded in a great test, withstanding with full sincerity, facing the Americans and the Zionists without fear," Hajizadeh emphasized.
Yemenis have been hitting Israeli and American targets in support of Palestinians in Gaza since the regime launched its devastating war on Gaza on October 7, 2023, and in response to the American-British aggression on their homeland.
Yemen’s Ansarullah resistance movement has been also targeting ships linked to Israel, the United States, or the United Kingdom to force an end to the Tel Aviv regime’s genocidal war on Gaza.
The Yemeni Armed Forces have said they will not stop their attacks until Israel’s ground and aerial offensives in Gaza end.
Yemen’s Armed Forces resumed their anti-Israeli operations at the discretion of Ansarullah’s leader Abdul-Malik al-Houthi.
Houthi had set the Israeli regime a four-day deadline to open the Gaza Strip’s crossings to let in vital aid into the Palestinian territory. Tel Aviv has closed off the terminals amid its deadly attacks against the coastal sliver.
The regime, however, missed the deadline, prompting the Armed Forces to resume a ban on Israeli and Israeli-affiliated vessels’ crossing key waterways off Yemen’s coastline.
Over Saturday and Sunday alone, as many as 53 Yemeni civilians, including women and children, were killed in American airstrikes hitting purely civilian targets throughout entire Yemen, despite Trump’s assertions that the US’s aggression was aimed at Ansarullah.
